1998 journal article

Relationship between long bone distortion and tibial dyschondroplasia in male turkeys

POULTRY SCIENCE, 77(9), 1300–1302.

By: P. Hester* & P. Ferket* 

author keywords: tibial dyschondroplasia; long bone distortion; valgus-varus deformity; turkey
MeSH headings : Aging; Animals; Bone and Bones / abnormalities; Male; Osteochondrodysplasias / complications; Osteochondrodysplasias / epidemiology; Poultry Diseases / epidemiology; Tibia; Turkeys
TL;DR: Under the conditions of the present experiment, TD did not appear to be a significant skeletal problem in Large White commercial male turkeys prior to 12.3 wk of age, suggesting that the valgus-varus deformity may be independent of TD. (via Semantic Scholar)

1998 journal article

Providing credentials to our graduates

POULTRY SCIENCE, 77(2), 208–210.

By: J. Brake n & S. Pardue n

author keywords: professionalism; examination; certification; regionalism
MeSH headings : Agriculture / education; Animals; Credentialing; Humans; Poultry; Universities / standards
TL;DR: Increased access to specialized poultry courses will assist in assuring that all graduates have excellent technical credentials, and to maintain their professional status, graduates would periodically participate in seminars and short courses and be encouraged to maintain active memberships in associations such as the Poultry Science Association.

1998 journal article

Differential effects of fat and sucrose on body composition in A/J and C57BL/6 mice

METABOLISM-CLINICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL, 47(11), 1354–1359.

By: B. Black n, J. Croom n, E. Eisen n, A. Petro n, C. Edwards  n & R. Surwit n

MeSH headings : Animals; Body Composition; Dietary Fats / administration & dosage; Dietary Sucrose / administration & dosage; Intestines / enzymology; Male; Mice; Mice, Inbred C57BL; Species Specificity; Sucrase / metabolism; Weight Gain; alpha-Glucosidases / metabolism
TL;DR: The B6 mouse exhibits disproportionate weight gain and altered body composition on a high-fat diet, which coupled with the reduced body weight and increased body protein on a low-fat, high-sucrose diet suggests that factors-relative to fat metabolism rather than sucrose metabolism are responsible for obesity.

1998 journal article

Heat conditioning induces heat shock proteins in broiler chickens and turkey poults

POULTRY SCIENCE, 77(11), 1636–1645.

By: S. Wang  n & F. Edens n

author keywords: heat acclimation; heat shock proteins; chicken; turkey; leukocytes
MeSH headings : Acclimatization; Aging; Animals; Body Temperature; Chickens / metabolism; Drosophila Proteins; HSP70 Heat-Shock Proteins / blood; HSP90 Heat-Shock Proteins / blood; Heat-Shock Proteins / biosynthesis; Heat-Shock Proteins / blood; Hot Temperature; Leukocytes / metabolism; Male; Sulfur Radioisotopes; Time Factors; Turkeys / metabolism
TL;DR: Peripheral leukocyte heat shock proteins (HSP): HSP90, HSP70, and HSP23 from broiler chickens and turkey poults were induced by in vitro and in vivo high temperature exposure and enhancement in HSP expression was evident for periods up to 4 wk after termination of the daily heat conditioning episodes.

1998 journal article

Evaluation of transgenic event 176 "Bt" corn in broiler chickens

POULTRY SCIENCE, 77(5), 648–653.

By: J. Brake n & D. Vlachos n

author keywords: Bt corn; transgenic corn; Bt maize; transgenic maize; broiler
MeSH headings : Animal Feed; Animal Nutritional Physiological Phenomena; Animals; Body Weight; Chickens / physiology; Female; Male; Plants, Genetically Modified; Zea mays
TL;DR: Broilers raised on diets prepared from the transgenic corn exhibited significantly better feed conversion ratios and improved yield of the Pectoralis minor breast muscle, and it was clear that thetransgenic corn had no deleterious effects in this study. (via Semantic Scholar)

Equipment design for breeding flocks

POULTRY SCIENCE, 77(12), 1833–1841.

By: J. Brake n

author keywords: nesting; cage design; behavior; feed restriction; fertility
MeSH headings : Animal Welfare; Animals; Breeding; Chickens / physiology; Female; Food Deprivation; Housing, Animal; Male
TL;DR: There is evidence that some undesirable behaviors and poor fertility may arise from inadequate rearing nutrition and that nutrition can influence the development of certain behaviors. (via Semantic Scholar)
